For all the "I have a right to take pictures people" Thread Locked

    I think it comes down to just a common sense issue. It's like right now the hospital across the street from my office is putting in a new wing, with major constructon activity going on. If I'm on the sidewalk, or across the street, and want to take pictures of the construction work in progress, I'm not breaking any law. If I try to sneak into the site to get closer to take pics of the action, I'm trespassing and should be removed / arrested - if nothing else, for my own safety!! But if I'm standing on the sidewalk and they need to use the sidewalk for say moving a piece of equipment or something, common sense says I should get out of the way and let them do their job, even if I do have the right to be on the sidewalk too.

    Good analogy!
